Sadly, this is no longer a stocked item. I have successfully rammed 120, and later 140 watts though these. They do heat up, but so far, they are still working very well. I had to re-utilize the secondary taps with double the impedance, to get close to a 9.5K CT reflected Z @ 1KHz, so I could run a pair of Telefunken EL156 tubes at just over 800 volts anode to put out 140 watts, (from one pair of tubes). Option 2 was to use speakers with 12 or 24 ohm voice coils, to get a better match with a lower output. This non-Fender or non-Marshall Hammond stuff seems to be be over built enough to take some limited abuse and misuse, and still be fully functional. I ordered out the Hammond 300 watt OT and went to a quad of EL156 tubes. It is stupid loud, but it made a great amp that leaves any Ampeg 6550 SVT foundering in it's wake. I used a 577-0-577 toroidal PT for power, to get my 800 volts anode.
